The pregame performance of 'The Star Spangled Banner' wasn't prioritized by NBC Sports, who failed to air it before the Philadelphia Eagles beat the Los Angeles Rams

NFL fans voiced their frustration as NBC omitted the National Anthem from its broadcast, sparking controversy during a high-stakes playoff game.

In the Divisional round of the 2024-25 NFL playoffs, the Detroit Lions host the Washington Commanders at Ford Field today.

Before the quarterfinal game began, "The Star-Spangled Banner" was performed in front of the entire Lincoln Financial Field crowd. There has been no official word from the Eagles of who performed the national anthem, but the USC Marching Band, rapper Busta Rhymes and DJ/producer Kascade took part in the prematch entertainment.

ESPN is taking heat for showing Taylor Swift while the national anthem was being sung before Texans-Chiefs kickoff on Saturday.

The Bills taped local singer Lucas West to perform the national anthem before facing the Ravens in the playoffs.

Who will sing the National Anthem for Eagles vs Rams divisional game? The National Anthem singer wasn't announced as of game time, but it'll be tough to compete with the Wild Card

NBC Sports opted against airing the national anthem before Sunday's Divisional Round game between the Philadelphia Eagles and visiting Los Angeles Rams. As a result, many fans appeared to be upset.
